Hello everyone,

I'm curious about the different types of oils and their uses, so I'm asking for some help. I'd like to know, how many types of oils are there? Are there only a few main types, or are there a lot of different categories? Could you tell me a bit more about the different types of oils, what makes them different from one another, and what are their uses?

I'm really interested in learning more about oils and what makes them unique. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
